Gravity

(1/1)

AlexGuy:
How can I make an object, that if the player goes through the object, his gravity changes to lower gravity for example? I tried to program an object, but it didn't work. Could someone help me please?

Aelya:
what's your code

well, I chosed the object which should change kid's gravity and made collision player and then this creation code: "with(player){gravity = 0.2;}"

simply as that :/

klazen108:
That's because the player sets his gravity back to normal every step (here's a picture from Seph's Engine, but it works the same in all engines):


To fix it, you need to change that line in the step event to

--- Code: ---gravity=player_gravity
--- End code ---

and add the following to the create event:

--- Code: ---player_gravity=0.4
--- End code ---

Then you can edit your code to be

--- Code: ---with(player){player_gravity = 0.2;}
--- End code ---

And it should work! (Remember to reset player_gravity=0.4 when you're done with it, on game load or room start or game reset etc, or else people can keep their different gravities in places you wouldn't expect!)
